Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Chapter 202: It's really a habit

Gu Yichuan smiled, "I came back to the capital this time and exposed the evidence of King Jing's treason, which can be considered as meritorious service. His Majesty told me that you are now in Yongzhou. It just so happens that two serious cases have occurred here. His Majesty asked me if I would like to come. I was thinking about you, so I agreed immediately. As soon as I received the errand, I rode south without stopping for a moment."

"So, the news in the capital is a few steps behind me. It should take another day or two to spread throughout Tiansheng."

"I see." Shen Nankui nodded.

Gu Yichuan looked at her steadily, with a hint of hope in his tone.

"Nan Kui, now that you know everything that happened, are you willing to forgive me?"

Shen Nankui met his gaze, and their eyes intertwined in the air, both filled with longing.

After a while, she sighed softly.

"In fact, I no longer blamed you when I knew the child was still alive."

She understood that he had his reasons.

So, she had been waiting for the day when he would explain it to her in person.

Fortunately, he did not disappoint her, and all the misunderstandings between them were finally resolved today.

"Nan Kui..."

When Gu Yichuan heard her words, the tenderness in his eyes became more intense, and her figure was reflected in his black eyes, as if he wanted to engrave her in his mind forever.

"Yichuan."

When Shen Nankui uttered this long-lost name again, there was a hint of tears in his eyes.

Gu Yichuan suddenly covered her eyes, his laughter trembling with a few tremors of trying hard to hold back, "My dear, now that our family is reunited and we have a daughter, it's something we should be happy about. Don't cry, okay?"

Crying during confinement will cause health problems, so how could he bear to see her body suffer?

Shen Nankui pulled the corner of his lips and said, "Okay, I won't cry."

Gu Yichuan finally couldn't help it. All the longing he had felt for the past six months burst out at this moment. He carefully embraced the person in front of him and whispered her name.

"Nan Kui, do you know how much I miss you?"

"I want, too……"

Before he could finish his words, he heard a baby crying.

Hehua came in hurriedly from outside and happened to see the two people hugging each other. She didn't know whether to go in or back out.

Just as she was about to leave, Shen Nankui pushed Gu Yichuan away again, stopped her and asked, "What's wrong with the child?"

Hehua's eyes swept over the two of them, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"The young lady just woke up. The nurse changed her diaper and fed her enough milk, but for some reason, the young lady still kept crying. The nurse said that she wanted you to come over and hug her to see if you could stop her crying."

Gu Yichuan became anxious when he heard this, and immediately stood up and said, "I'll go take a look."

Shen Nankui shook his head helplessly, "I really am used to it."

Having said that, there was a smile on her face.

After Gu Yichuan left, He Hua smiled and winked at her, "Madam, have you and the young master finally reconciled?"

Shen Nankui blushed, "You little girl, you're actually teasing me?"

He Hua chuckled and said, "I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."

She was extremely happy that the lady and the young master were able to resolve their misunderstanding and reconcile, and so was Zhongshan. The two of them could finally see the harmonious and loving couple they used to be again.

Not long after, Gu Yichuan came in holding his daughter, with a hint of joy in his tone.

"Nan Kui, look, our daughter really recognized me. She stopped crying as soon as I hugged her."

The little child was staying obediently in Gu Yichuang's arms, with his big eyes wide open and babbling bubbles from his mouth, looking really adorable.

Shen Nankui stretched out her hand, "Give me a hug."

Gu Yichuan leaned over and handed the child to her. Seeing that the corners of his daughter's mouth were down and she looked like she was about to cry, he hurriedly coaxed her, "My dear daughter, let mother hug you and don't cry, okay?"

The baby really just hummed and didn't make any noise.

Shen Nankui was surprised, and felt a little sour in his heart. He gently touched the tip of his daughter's nose with his fingertips, "Child, you are willing to listen to your father."

Gu Yichuan suddenly said, "The child has been born for two days. It's not good to keep calling her a child or a girl. Nankui, do you have a name for her?"

Shen Nankui looked at him and said, "You are the father, you come and get it."

Gu Yichuan shook his head, "No, you were pregnant for ten months before you gave birth to her. I hope that our daughter's name can be given by you."

Shen Nankui looked down at the child in her arms and whispered, "May the season be blessed with peace in autumn and happiness in winter. May the spring be blessed with good luck and may the summer be peaceful."

"I have little kinship in my life, and this child has a special meaning to me. I only hope that she can live a happy and peaceful life. So, the child's name is Song An, okay?"

"Gu Songan."

Gu Yichuan read it once, smiled and nodded, "It's a good name."

"Song An, Song An."

He leaned over and reached out to tease the child twice, but the latter did not give him any response.

Gu Yichuan smiled and asked, "What about the baby's nickname? What's a good baby name for the child?"

Shen Nankui shook his head, "I haven't thought about that yet."

Gu Yichuan smiled and said, "I have one. I often hear the elders in the village say that a child's nickname should be humble so that it will be easier to raise in the future. Since you hope that she can live a peaceful and smooth life, why not give your daughter a nickname called Ah Nao? It just so happens that she is also a noisy person, and the name means lively and bustling. Calling her that will also bring her some blessings."

Shen Nankui smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

She also hopes that her children can live happily in the future and not be alone like her.

"Ah Nao, Ah Nao."

The young couple put their heads together and teased the baby in their arms. The harmonious appearance of the family of three made Hehua, who was standing beside them, tear up.

Since Shen Nankui and Gu Yichuan had reconciled, at night, Gu Yichuan naturally went into the main room to sleep.

After being away for half a year, Shen Nankui felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm in confinement, you can sleep in the side room."

Gu Yichuan refused, "Don't worry, my lady. I will only protect you and will never disturb you at all. Just treat me as He Hua."

"But you still have to deal with government affairs during the day. If you don't get enough rest at night..."
